Thanks to a suggestion from Kainaat, I’m doing a quick dive into Keeravani, especially his Hindi soundtracks that I knew and loved without knowing they were him.

Good Morning! I got coffee, I got a morning banana, I got a dog snuggled against me, let’s do this thing.

Woot, Paheli won!!!! So we will watch that tomorrow morning at 8am Chicago time, unless no one shows up, and then I will go back to bed!

What a nice coincidence! Amitabh’s birthday and Yashji’s birthday, both perfectly timed to post a collaberation.
Continue readingMovie Tomorrow! Hum Saath Saath Hain or Paheli?
I’ve narrowed it down to two! Both on Netflix so you should all be able to see them. Both drippy and romantic and happy.

For a man who didn’t even kiss onscreen until a few years ago, he is really good at doing the sex eyes!

Now I am limiting it to just the ones where he actually played a husband so we have a clear comparison. And also to help alert you all to this post from late last night where I discussed Shahrukh as a husband on film.
